Yes severe mental illness can stop you producing mentally healthy children, you will pass your problems on to them. You are living in dream world madam.

My life is very hard because I have social anxiety disorder, so day to day life is challenging in general and I try and push myself as much as possible but I find myself overwhelmed and stressed out because I have two kids and they both have severe ADHD. I’m constantly feeling stressed and overwhelmed from the second I wake up until I fall asleep, because my kids are so full on.

Thank you for this. I am Bipolar and unmedicated for 4 years but stable but I definitely feel tested with my autistic 3 year old.

I'm a mum of 2 and I've had depression on and off for as long as I can remember. My eldest is 5 he's coming into the age now where he notices I'm not myself and asks me why, I just have to tell him mummy isn't feeling well and having a bad day. I'm terrified I'm going to pass this onto my children and can't think of anything worse then being responsible for them having to go through this. I understand that you made this video with intent to help and give people useful tools to get better BUT especially with children it is SO much more difficult especially if you don't have the extra help of family or money for childcare.

This is helpful for me even tho I don’t have kids I have roommates. I told them everything going with me and I feel more comfortable and safe with them

We are new to your channel (found you through DissociaDID) and we appreciate your videos. We are diagnosed with DID and complex PTSD. The husband just bought a house, our system has managed to be able to live a relatively healthy and safe life but there are alters that are still very messed up and in NEED of professional help. So even if those are helped, do you think we can ever have children? Some of us are still children themselves and we worry a lot because thats one of the host's biggest hopes in life to have a baby or maybe two one day.

I always tell myself, I've given birth to my child, not my pain. I keep my sadness separate from my mommy role.
